After multiple leaks over the past couple of weeks, the Motorola Defy is now official.

Both companies had announced a strategic partnership earlier in February. As a tough phone, the Motorola Defy is built to...Motorola Defy seems to be a ruggedized G9 Play running Android 10
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Motorola is reviving its 'Defy' brand with a new mid-range Android phone. The original Motorola Defy was released in 2010 as one of the first Android phones with dust and water resistance, but the lineup didn't last beyond 2011, when Motorola shifted its attention to other phones. Now...Motorola may be reviving its old “Defy” brand this year
Motorola may revive its old "Defy" brand this year with a new mid-range phone. According to recent leaks, the upcoming Motorola Defy device will feature an HD+ display, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 662 SoC, and 4GB of RAM. For the unaware, the original Motorola Defy debuted all the way back in 2010. It was among the first Android...Motorola Defy Refuses to Die, Receives Initial Lollipop Port
For the great majority of devices, manufacturer-provided OS update support is rather short. Some of this is due to technical difficulties and a lack of consumer interest, but really it just comes down to profitability for the OEMs in question. Luckily, there are devices that have received extensive aftermarket development such as the HTC HD2, Samsung...Motorola Defy Gains New Life with Repartition
The Motorola Defy was released approximately four years ago back in the early Fall of 2010.

Do you remember all the way back to Android 2.1 Eclair? Yes? Maybe? It was released back in January 2010---almost 4 years ago. The Motorola Defy shipped with that OS. And now, years later, the Defy received a fresh build of KitKat, making it one of the first devices with just 512 megabytes of RAM to get...Unofficial CM10.1 Lands on the Defy & Defy+
The Motorola Defy is not only impervious to water, sand, and good old fashioned brute force (within reason obviously), but it is also apparently not the slightest bit phased by Motorola's own unwillingness to keep the updates coming. When the device isn't scuba diving or spelunking, chances are that it's kicking back and enjoying one of...Android 4.1.2 Build Now Available for Motorola Defy & Defy+
Despite being somewhat abandoned by Motorola as far as official updates are concerned, the Motorola Defy & Defy+ are refusing to accept that the latest versions of Android are out of the question. Having recently received an unofficial version of CM10 based on Android 4.1.2 thanks to XDA Recognized Developer Quarx, these devices continue to...Lock Apps in Memory on the Motorola Defy
Keeping applications in memory can serve various potential uses. While aggressive RAM conservation may benefit the user experience when opening very large apps, users typically see the best performance and battery life by having frequently used apps in RAM. While it's not possible to put all of your applications in memory, keeping the go-to applications...Easy Fix for Logcat Blues on Jelly Bean Ports
Jelly Bean seems to be on everyone's mind, as of late. The latest and greatest to come out of Google's sweet treat factory is ravaging the site with its popularity and feature-packed nature. As such, ports are flying left, right, and center onto most devices (old and new) on the site. However, as is the...Boot to Gecko Now Booting on the Motorola Defy
